Thanks slowhatch! I'm so new I'm not quite sure what you call it...If I find a nice picture on the web and want to share it like you all do, how do I do it? I already have Photo Shop and Paint Pro on my computer--can I do it with what I have? I understand how to copy/paste words--can I do that with pictures too? What do I save the picture as--just a file or some special picture thingy? Sorry, this probably isn't the place to find all this out but I'd like to contribute more than my limited computer skills are allowing...

If it's the whole image you want, just right-click the image and choose "save picture as.." The programs you mentioned should have a resize function somewhere in the menu bar. The maximum size for attachments is 256kb, but most photos can be downsized to 50kb or less without losing too much detail.

I have save background as...is that the same thing? And do I have to specify jpg or anything when I save it or can I just stick it in a "my pictures" file? And once it is there, how do I paste it back to y'all?

I really appreciate your time--I keep thinking if I could just do it once I could do it again!

About the caps--they swim over to the I.M., grab something and swim back: is that the consensus?

I get the feeling they have to collect something too. Rob & Kim jumping off has me confused :hallo3

how I do it peach

right click Save picture as ( I have my picture files /folder ) or if you want you can just save to your desktop.Then below you can attach additional options browse ( picture file or desktop OR recent )click picture open

It seems like there are two things going on--some teams are swimming somewhere from the Isla Mauritia and others are taking a small skiff somewhere to what? Is this the Detour? Or are all teams doing both? And where/what were the kayaking roadblockers going and what were they doing?

Boy, I'm really full of questions tonight!

I had trouble the last time I linked to the KWI site, so I used Flightstats instead. There's no archive function, only a three-day window for searching; I used Sunday and came up with only two 8:10 flights to London.

I tried this site and then tried various combos of flights via Dubai,Delhi, Bombay,Nairobi.and Jo-berg on various airlines on to MRU. I had no luck with any Flights leaving or arriving exactly at 8. Maybe she said 8 in reference to an 8-ish flight? Got lots of those... Even checked all of Kuwait Air's flights out for one whole day and...nothing.

Well teh only poblem I see with the list is if Rob and Kim are the ones with Car problems and we do know the D/K do gget in a car accident.

Unless this happens very early in the leg (such as the beginning before any detour or Roadblock) they will be stuck for a while.

D/K if they are forced to follow the rules of the country (if its in that country, a not still in Kuwait). Must stop even if the car is still drivable and wait for police. If its not drvable they ahve to wait as well for replacement vehicle. And going off of previous seasons that can take anywhere between 30 minutes to a hour and a half.

Same for Rob and Kim if they have to get a replacement vehicle.

If these happen I can't see this teams coming in 1st and 2cd with the tasks (that we have seen) being done so close to each otehr, unless they happen before the tasks.

This is the best site for Amazing Race and I'm not aware of another with people better at finding locations. Here is a challenge - at www.aol.com/goldrush (the Gold Rush game being advertised on CBS) the million dollar round challenge #8 question is about a location on tonight's episode of AR- can you find the location? I've looked everywhere I know for the answer with no luck. If you find it please post the answer here or PM me. There is no $$$ for this round until challenge #11 but not being able to find the answer is driving me nuts (short trip)!!!

The Gold Rush site has a map posted with an X on it that is supposed to be where one of the teams gets lost. Do we have any info about a team getting lost? Thank you banzai, I would have posted the map but didn't know how.
